Nice! What did you buy?
This: https://notawheelchair.com/

I'll use it all summer for getting around outside with the kids, going on trails, but I'll primarily use it for hunting.

Nice Bike, ever take it off any sweet jumps?

Sorry couldn't resist! That is one serious piece. I remember you posting about it. Glad it's almost here
Very nice! Good luck with it! It’s great that smart people are always thinking out of the box!

With the weight limit @ 225 it won't haul my ars around,
and it might be a little hard to steer in the woods with all the leaves on
the ground and twigs ???? :eusa-think:

It's seems like an interesting rig & looks well built. Looks like a nice carrying rack could be added to the back to haul gear, & that would be nice! The under 225 pound carrying capacity rating, however, would be my concern, too.

It's funny they say 225 lb limit, but then right in their intro video he rides on the back of it, and I bet he's easily 225 himself. But I'm a medium sized guy and even with all my hunting gear I'll be under the limit.

Didn't intend to hijack this thread though... My brother has a regular ebike for hunting. Loves it, even pulls a deer cart with it.

I found that odd as well. Perhaps it’s the “chair” part (his wife is built small) maybe he could beef up that area for us beefcakes! :mrgreen:

I personally owned three electric bikes ...I use for hunting the other one I use for the road. I have one with a 26 x 4” tire and tows deer out like a quad the other one has 20 inch tires 4 inches wide as the mid drive motor with 750 want hub motor and I use a Crawler dear cart ...I literally put my bike within 50 yards of my stand and deer walk right by it they have no idea it’s there or you’re coming they stand there and look at you.I have Benefited by just carrying all my stuff in the woods all at once I can throw three blinds to stands on it and within a couple hours be all set up the deer crawler car is the way to go with the four wheels it’s more stable and easy to pull out and I’ve hauled numerous deer out with it I went with a step through 20 inch rad runner and built it myself with the mid drive motor totally has enough power to pull anything..I’ve been using electric bikes for 7 years now love it no scent on the ground great for scouting to game changer for me ..

You need to look at Juiced Bikes Scrambler (Camp) version. It is one of the best and lowest cost E-Bikes out there and it works great. We used one in California on the streets (City) and switch to the nobby tires (Camp) for hunting. The website is www.juicedbikes.com

I don’t really have any mud…just a couple brooks to traverse. BUT that’s why I like the Rungu Duallie…check them out! The twin front wheels (one rear) gives more stability in shifty conditions like mud/sand/snow. Hopefully the prices will be coming down after this woohanflu is settled.
